A father's narration:
After Children's Day in 2021,
Eight-year-old daughter and her friends were displaced separately
9-year-old Mei Aiwei is the biggest sponsor of this event (donated 100,000 yuan to this large-scale charity charity event), and is also the father of a child, from Chengde, Hebei.
"My daughter Aisa, 8 years old, was born in Kharkov, Ukraine. In addition to Kiev , this is the second largest city in Ukraine.
Typical Eastern European-style cities are larger than those in Warsaw, Poland.
The landmark here is Liberty Square, the largest square in Europe.
Here, I have lived for 21 years.
The people here belong to the standard Slav personality, generous and romantic. Life is very ritualistic. For example, holding a small party and dinner, everyone will dress up to attend.
I am here and got married with a Ukrainian girl. On April 8, 2014, my daughter was born.
I deliberately made a video, accompanied by the original soundtrack of the movie " Lion King ", my wife and I carefully took over the scrambled daughter from the hospital nurse.
I remembered last year, my daughter celebrated Children's Day in Kharkov ..."
" My mother and I came to Gorky Park, which is the largest park in the entire Ukraine with an area of at least hundreds of hectares.
There is dense vegetation covering, Ferris wheels, roller coasters...
The children sing Ukrainian children's songs together, and some people sing Peppa Pig.
,000 children gathered in Gorky Park. My daughter, like other friends, was very lively and happy. "
" The wish of this life, like all parents, is to hope that the children can grow up safely.
Until the early morning of February 24 this year, shells passed through the city's night sky.
I quickly took my wife and daughter to hide in the basement, hiding for seven days and seven nights.
Seven days later, 8-year-old daughter Alisa set out on the road to escape with us.
We took the risk of getting things home, and we were very panicked. We didn't have time to get more items, so we only took a few winter clothes and hundreds of dollars, and carried an oil barrel.
On the way from Kharkov to Poltawa, I couldn’t buy food and gasoline along the way, and my daughter and we leaned on a few apples to satisfy our hunger.
Our destination is krakow in Poland, a journey of 1200 kilometers, which took three days and three nights.
This is a very horrible experience, my factory and office were destroyed in the war.
When the sound of cannons in the city rumbling, the adults hid everywhere in panic, but the children were still playing games.
Their age does not quite understand the definition of war.
This experience actually had a great impact on the children: the former friends were separated from then on and were displaced.
022 Children's Day, there are quite a lot of activities: blowing dinosaurs, jumping on the bed, face drawing games..."
" Every child can get a white T-paper and draw on it.
Daughter Alisa drew a five-star red flag, then drew a big green mood, and circled the national flag. "
" This time, she didn't know all the children.
But Alisa did not become silent due to displacement, and she was still optimistic.
She helped adults distribute gifts to every child and soon played with these strange children. "
" I am fortunate to be one of the sponsors of this charity event and have no choice but to prepare gifts for the children.
Someone asked me: You are fleeing, and life is difficult, why do you still sponsor this event?
I answered that I have experienced this war, I understand the suffering, I do my best to make the children happy, and let them feel that there is a kind side in the world..."
Children's Day gifts that children want most
It is the event site of the event, Qiu Xiufen, director of the Charity Department of the Zhejiang Chamber of Commerce in Poland, had a conversation with eight-year-old Alisa, "What gift do you want most? ”
Alisa whispered, “I want to go home with my parents. "
Children's Day is Dzien Dziecka in Polish . Like China, Poland celebrates Children's Day on June 1.
Executive President of Poland Zhejiang Chamber of Commerce Du Jianyong told Chengshi Interactive, "For this event, the Chinese companies coming to this event have Future Wisdom, Tianying Assets, Yongxing Company, Hongyi, Excellent International Logistics and MP Stationery... On behalf of the children, we pay tribute to these caring people. ”
Finally, all the guests who participated in the event released the 100 peace doves carefully prepared by the Zhejiang Chamber of Commerce in Poland, praying for world peace together, and the war ended as soon as possible. Children who were displaced and left their hometowns can return to a peaceful and stable environment to grow up happily and healthily with their beloved families, and when they grow up, they can maintain world peace, promote international unity, and enhance friendly exchanges.

More importantly, this is the result of the cooperation between China and Ukrainian masters, and it is the best holiday gift for children around the world.
We are honored and happy to have the opportunity to give a Ukrainian name to a character in the book. We recommend her name Ia."
